The perfect shrink tube shape, time after time. You can do that with the WK Knikje. To get the bend in the shrink tube in the right place, all you have to do is place the hook in the shrink tube steamer and hold it in the steam from the kettle or whistling kettle. Make sure to steam it at maximum heat to ensure the shrink tube shrinks completely tight. The white stripe indicates how far the shrink tube should go.
Have you seen the WK Rig Steamer yet? With it, you steam the entire rig length and shrink tube in one go, under tension. These tools are also included in the complete shrink tube package.
Shrink tube on your hook has many advantages. The most important, of course, is the best hook hold. The bend in the shrink tube ensures that the hook always sets in the same place: behind the hard edge of the lower lip. In addition, the shrink tube protects the corners of the mouth during the fight.
